RE: Avon Buses
Think this must have been the one that involved the rather unlucky bus that is arriva 2424.

That's the one, thought it was 2424, but was doubting myself!

RE: Avon Buses
Theres a photo on facebook of the damage to 2424 and on the photo theres a link to a photo of one of birkenheads brand new 12 reg pulsar 2s which has suffered very heavy front end damage in a separate accident the damage is as bad as what 2724 and 2727 the two southport renowns suffered the other year no other details on the pulsar accident yet though anyone know anymore?

The pulsar 2 is not a Laird St one, it has a yorkshire registration plate.

Arriva Yorkshire 1464 YJ62 JVE possibly

2424 was hit by 4059 in the depot. The yorkshire pulsar looks like it could be a write off owing to the damage. its much worse than the 2 b10s

RE: Avon Buses
Is that the same Yorkshire one that was involved in a smash recently, details in the Arriva Yorkshire thread if I remember correctly.

Why was Bootle's 4059 at Birkenhead, wasnt 4059 the one that was getting engine work at St Helens.

It was 4050 which was involved in a depot shunt accident, the Cadet involved in the accident was infact 2427 but 2424 ran into the back of the Avon bus on the same day as the shunting accident.

Thanks for clearing that up.
